A series of functions
 | (*) |
where 
is the sequence of all eigen values of a symmetric kernel (cf. Kernel of an integral operator) 
, 
, 
is the corresponding sequence of orthonormal eigen functions, while 
is the scalar product of an arbitrary square-summable function 
and the function 
.
The Hilbert–Schmidt theorem: If the kernel 
is a square-summable function in two variables, then the series (*) converges in the mean to the function
 |
If there exists a constant C such that for all 
from 
the inequality
 |
is fulfilled, then the Hilbert–Schmidt series converges absolutely and uniformly.
